'MK' Style Death....

...I was flipping through the channels this morning and on one of the national news networks (it was one of these: CNN, CNBC, MSNBC, Fox News or any other national news network in the USA), it shows the shot from MK Deadly Alliance where Shang Tsung and Quan Chi kill Liu Kang. Apparently, one or two people attacked a little girl and killed her "MK style" as the reporters put it.

I searched the web and I think I found the proper story:

I mean, hasn't the MK series (as well as any other series of video games) taken enough hits already?

What I'm getting at here is that games like the MK series, Grand Theft Auto series and other violent games have been blamed for acts of violence.

I heard that some games have actually been pulled from store shelves due to cases like this (it's what somebody told me). I'll be really mad if MK (or any other violent games I like) get pulled from store shelves.

Did you ever watch the history of MK (Deadly Alliance version)?

When they talked about MK4, it actually showed News clips and some reporters called MK4 the latest horror in violent video games.

Another reporter asks "Are they just games, or will they effect violent behavior in our society?"

When I saw this I was like "Oh what the f-ck ever!"

I'd say that exact same thing to anyone else who says crap like "MK is too violent" and/or "It shouldn't be sold"
